Gift Leutela won his 2nd gold medal and again ran faster than the existing SA record but unfortunately the wind was too strong for it to be recognized as a national record.
The highlight for TuksAthletics on day 3 was undoubtedly the gold medal and also new SA record for Taylon Bieldt in the 100m hurdles. She broke 1 of the oldest SA Records of Ilse Ras which was set in 1982 when she finished the race in a time of 13.18 bettering te existing record by 0.03 seconds.
These results now mean that TuksAthletics contributed 4 out of the 5 gold medals that have been won during athletics and also set 2 national records during this meeting - a formidable feat!
